Waking up on a top floor room with a breathtaking view over the Douro river and the city of Porto, sounds good? All this is possible at the Holiday Inn Porto Gaia. The hotel is only a short distance from the worldwide famous Port Wine Cellars and the historical city center of Porto.

Since opening, the Holiday Inn Express Porto Exponor has been the solution for people traveling on business and leisure due to its location-practically opposite the Exponor Congress and Fair Exhibition Centre and very close to Porto Airport, Marshopping (IKEA) and Norteshopping, the sea Port, the Equestrian Center Matosinhos, Leca da Palmeira beaches and the historical centre of Porto!

Located in the upscale residential and business area of Porto, Crowne Plaza Porto is ideally positioned between the sea and city centre. The 232 rooms are decorated elegantly and harmonious and induce the feeling of tranquility and well-being. Experience a great sea view from our top floors.
Equipped with 11 meeting rooms with natural day light and a total of 1000sqm of meeting space.

A sense of heritage and authenticity in the heart of the city. Located in a newly renovated palace dating from the latter 18th century and overlooking the imposing Avenida dos Aliados, the hotel is walking distance from all major cultural highlights such as the Bolhao Market, Ribeira District or the Clerigos Tower. The Palacio das Cardosas is the ideal place to experience Porto's true essence.

Comfortable rooms and good service

Our stay at the hotel was part of a river cruise and was chosen by the holiday company but we would agree it was a very good choice. The rooms were a good size and very comfortable as was the[More]
beds.
There was a good choice of foods for breakfast.
My wife enjoyed the sleep potions very much so and has now ordered some as she felt it did work.
It was a pity that the road works cause some irritation
and it spoilt sitting in the garden in the evening due to the site huts and machinery being on view.
We certainly would look at Crown Plaza hotels in the future when booking our own holidays. [Less]
